CONVERSE Chuck Taylor All Star – Country Collection

With the opening ceremonies for the 2012 Olympics just a few days away, Converse joins in on the celebration of the diversity of the games with the release of this limited-edition Chuck Taylor All-Star Country Collection. Inspired by seven different nations – including the U.S., United Kingdom, Jamaica, China, Brazil, Germany, and Italy – these releases take a digitally printed graphic that represents the culture and style of each country and wraps it around the entire upper of the iconic hi-top silhouette. The flags of each country fly on the tongues of each pair, with the Converse logo making its way on only the ankle. The stars and stripes of the U.S. and the red, white, and green pair from Italy stand out, but each will surely have a legion of buyers. All of these limited edition Converse All Stars are available now at the brand’s retailers worldwide. Check them out in detail after the jump.
